hahahaha! I already bought the heto when the Aqua One malfunctioned.

Fish List:

4x Discus
2x Apistogramma Cacatuiodes
3x Peppermint Bristlenose
10x Rummy Nose tetras.

Thinking of a red variety of discus... They'll be all the same kind. Personally I think it looks good that way.

Either Red Roses or Pigeon Bloods

I know your not a beginner, but just watch those peppies with the Discus.
Ever tank I've kept / seen with sucker mouths & discus has always ended in tragedy. Maybe not right away but eventually.

Yep, I'll keep a close eye on them.

Moving on Wednesday. Meh, leave the couches, tables, beds, lamps and chairs behind. As long as I got the fridge, my tanks and a bean bag I'll be happy.

So I stuffed up! What an idiot I am.

The tank is 30 wide when the stand is 45 wide. Although I bought a rimless ADA tank from SEaview (second hand) waiting for them to empty it, then I'll take it home and plonk it on the stand, fill it with water and off we go!


Watch the space....

Can't decide whether I should make it a planted tank or a tangyanikan tank, I should probably make it a planted tank though because of the light I have for it (ATI Sunpower 4x39W) with Sylvania and geisemann tubes.

Yeah, just I don't know how the discus will handle being in a smaller tank.

I should just stop changing my mind and try discus, if they aren't going too well I can always sell them and try something else.

def give discus a go and since you are looking at red variety, red melons are pretty nice too.

Yeah I like red melons,

I am trying to decide between either red melon, red rose or red turquoise discus.

If I can afford them I think I'll get the red turquoise or just turquoise.
